Ending by Jackie Ogden (12 and under)

In the foggy distance she heard something odd and creepy. It kind of sounded like her mom screaming. It made Crystal want to cry and scream with terror. I think I should get to the bottom of this mystery. ''Maybe they fell of the boat! No that would be impossible. But it could happen.''

''Oh but it can.''

''Wh... wh... who said that? Come out wherever y ... y .. you are," Crystal shouted out into the foggy reservoir. All she could hear was the faint sound of the small fishing boat rocking on the swift little waves bouncing off the dam.

''You are in danger!''

There it was again! That voice ... that voice! It reminded her of her father. Then something unexpected happened. Out of the fog rose a see-through body complete with everything that a normal human had except that the body looked like an Indian that may have once lived under the lake! Then it spoke ''You are in great danger! Your parents and brother where pulled off the deck while you were sleeping! I'll tell you where they went if you do ...''

"Please I'll do anything! I just want my mom and dad!" Crystal sobbed.

''Fine! You have to go to the bottom of the lake and fetch me an Indian doll with one eye'' the odd person explained.

Crystal's mouth dropped open. ''How am I going to do that!''

''Here, take this forever lasting scuba gear and air tank''.

''Everlasting? Everlasting air tank? How is that possible?!''

''Oh I must've forgot! It's everlasting for ghosts only. You have to drink this and become a temporary ghost.''

''Ha! Why would I do that?''

''If you ever want to see your parents and brother again, that's why! You got that now go? Go! Go! Go down now!

''Fine I'll go!'' And Crystal dove into the water. Now it was dark and wet down there and every once in while she would see a scaly fish. That was exciting for her. Soon she was at the bottom. She saw broken down huts, cut down trees, and everything that a tribe would have. Then a little wave blew some sand around and in the sand Crystal saw a vision of when there was a tribe. She saw a child lifted up by her mother dressed in buffalo skin and the child in a knitted cloak. She also saw a village with a young boy chasing a goose. There was a man fishing in a pond and elders knitting. It was a beautiful sight. When the sand died down Crystal saw a doll with one eye just like the one the ghost told her about. She swam over to it and picked it up. It was ragged and torn up. She swam back to the top and held up the doll. The ghost took it and said '' Your parents are at the dam and your brother is sleeping in the boat. Thank you.''

''No, thank you.''

Soon she was on the boat she woke up her brother and they drove the boat over to the dam together.

When they got there Crystal told Tommy what happened while he was sleeping. ''Wow. Cool!'' He repeated. Then they found their mom and dad. We were glad to see each other. ''We were kidnapped!'' they told us. '' No way '' Tommy and I said together.

Soon we where home again and all was good. I still remember that day. Wow!
